Arrow – Season 8

Back in March, we learned Arrow would be coming to an end after its eighth season and although it’s a shame the series has to come to an end, viewership has dipped over the past few seasons and fans of the show deserve a well-written and thought-out conclusion, especially considering the show’s connection to the Arrowverse’s shared fictional universe. When asked about the series finale, Stephen Amell told the crowd at SDCC 2019, “If you all hate our finale, I’ll know we’ve done a good job! No… Arrow has a happy ending.”

Watchmen – Season 1

Following the conclusion Game of Thrones, many believed HBO would lose numerous subscribers, but after watching full-length Watchmen trailer released over the weekend, we have no doubt HBO will continue to keep and find new customers. While the trailer doesn’t really provide any more information than the teaser released back in May, from what we can tell, Damon Lindelof’s take on

Westworld – Season 4

HBO also released the season three trailer for the star-studded science fiction series Westworld, based on Michael Crichton’s 1973 film of the same name.

Although the film didn’t go as planned, based on what we’ve seen thus far from the teasers and the trailer below, we have high hopes for His Dark Materials. The series stars Dafne Keen as Lyra, James McAvoy as Lord Asriel, and Ruth Wilson as Marisa Coulter.

His Dark Materials arrives on HBO this coming fall.

Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)

Even though we thought a new trailer was coming, the new Dark Fate featurette released was arguable between than a four-minute spoiler-filled trailer. Rather, the action-packed video features various clips from the upcoming film but focused heavily on commentary from director Tim Miller, James Cameron, Linda Hamilton and more. It was also announced during the panel that Edward Furlong will reprise his role as John Connor.

Jay and Silent Bob Reboot (2019)

Even though the Jay and Silent Bob Reboot might seem like the sequel nobody asked for (which it is), my friends and I would watch Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back all the time back in the day, so a reboot movie about Jay and Silent Bob going to Hollywood to stop a Bluntman and Chronic reboot movie from being made sounds ironically entertaining to me. The reboot trailer also features a variety of cameos from Chris Hemsworth, Melissa Benoist, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and many more Hollywood stars.

The Jay and Silent Bob Reboot movie arrives in theatres on October 15, 2019.

It: Chapter 2 (2019)

The Loser club will be played by James McAvoy, Jessica Chastain, Bill Hader, Isaiah Mustafa, Jay Ryan, James Ransone, Andy Bean. The first chapter released back in 2017 grossed over $700 million and based on what we’re seeing from Chapter 2, we have no doubt the sequel surpass a billion.
